“Joe got the family together about two months ago and came out of the closet,” an insider told the mag. “He told them that he’d tried to continue in his marriage to Tina, but he couldn’t go on any longer and deny the fact that he had these feelings for men.”

This is apparently the reason he split from wife Tina after 34 years of marriage.

“Joe said it wasn’t fair to her, and it wasn’t fair to him.”

The 54-year-old minister has of course not made a comment about all this, and it is the Enquirer, so this should all be taken with a grain of salt.
